Luyện nghe bài hát Americana

America, the land of the free, the home of the
That's what I thought before I toured
You see, I've got being seduced by the sheer americana of it all
And I'd their images on television
Of lee harvey oswald, john f. assassination
And I "america is a violent place"
And is keen to trap you
Like you had giant tentacles that wrapped themselves you
Until you couldn't move and you were
The land of the free, the home of the brave, guns and the west

Hey big fat cowboy, your big stetson
Hey big fat cowboy, flashing big six gun
Hey big fat cowboy, singing & western
Hey big fat cowboy, is this the way the west was won? yeah

I found in the back of a big ford thunderbird
With a slick-looking
He like a punk from a b-movie,
The sort of punk that would piss off
Until lee marvin put a bullet through his
The punk looked at me
"kinks? what kind of a motherfuckin' name is "
Then he reached over and picked up the car
"hey kid, got elvis presley's phone number.
I've got phone number. I've fucked ann-margret!"
I knew mick avory be impressed with this, but I was not
And then the punk looked at me
"i'll elvis presley" he dialed a number
"hey, is that you elvis? I wanna to the colonel.
to it, you mother!"
And then he looked at me in a menacing way,
Reached into the glove-compartment and took out a
He waved the six gun around,
"you see kid, when I deal with people, have to treat me right,
Otherwise contend with this! a gun!
Have you ever seen a gun "
I
Then he it around, put it back in the glove-compartment
"welcome to peoria, illinois, home of america,
and apple pie, guns and the wild west"

All american guy, why achieve that gleam in the sun
and a milkshake, all american dude
Popcorn and a t-bone, hot dog a big smile
And a bad attitude, yeah yeah

Flying across on a twa, flying to california
To appear on television, our new record set me free
The kinks were met by a union man with a contract to
And the kinks didn't like signing
"hey, are you the kinks? this piece of paper guys!
I want you to sign this union-document so you can on television"
"no mate, we don't wanna sign a contract"
"you have to sign, you cannot appear"
"we don't want to a piece of paper, alright!"
"listen kid, you the piece of paper.
You with red hunting jackets and your yellow frilly shirts.
the piece of paper!"
"do you wanna sign it? " he over at dave
"watcha gonna do " "fuck off!"
Which is a fairly thing to say in the circumstances,
But not very wise, you see, the man was a union
"alright. I file my report on you guys
You're never work in america again.
gonna find out just how powerful it is in america!"
The land of ice-cream and apple pie, and the wild west

american union rules with the fist, a smile and a gun
Great napalm lights up the sky like the sun
Great american eagle swoops down the sky up above

And I remember the images of lee oswald
Appearing on tv saying he was a
A union man is a-framin' the
I thought "this is the land of opportunity"
But the cosa are everywhere
Land of ice-cream and pie

Hey big fat cowboy, that big six gun
Hey big fat cowboy, singing country &
Hey big fat cowboy, moving big six gun
Hey big fat cowboy, is this the way that the west was
yeah yeah

And 6 weeks later robert and and larry
Were sitting in their in carnaby street
And the came from the american government
It was from the american of musicians union
"a known as the kinks,
The english beat group as the kinks,
Are from america.
Their license to perform has revoked indefinitely"
Yeah, all the same off
In the land of the ice-cream and pie, guns and the wild west
